"Oh yes it is." Oh? Show me a label. "Government employees do their job, they get paid. A state-run economy." We don't have a state-run economy. California might be different, however. " The market didn't create the job, government created the job." Umm, so? Now, I will grant you that those jobs aren't as flexible as they might be if created by small businesses. But large corporations have the same problem. But that isn't relevant here. What is relevant is that there is money being put into the economy. Either by tax cuts, deficit spending or some combination of both. It is a very odd viewpoint that hold the money is different whether it comes from tax cuts or deficit spending. They are still dollars. The whole source of the jobs is a red herring, tax cuts don't create jobs except by putting more dollars in pockets. It would be the rare individual who would say "I got a tax cut! I will go out and hire some people!". Now, they likely will do things like spend more, which creates more demand and gives employers incentives to hire people... "Fixed. ;-)" Yawn. If anyone is using a playbook, it is you. You make these totally nonsensical statements and try to palm them off as economics. Like trying to make a distinction between tax cuts and deficit spending. Really, your ignorance is pretty appalling. If that is the sort of stuff you learn in an Ivy League school, they are vastly over-rated.
